TIE: Ballet Austin, Tapestry

Ballet Austin and Tapestry have been delighting Austin audiences, young and old, for years with time-honored traditional presentations and ground-breaking new shows. 2004 will be Ballet Austin’s 42nd year of dancing The Nutcracker, and Tapestry frequently performs shows that are progressive, inimitable blends of tap, ballet, modern, and jazz (watch for In the Pocket at the end of October at the Paramount). In addition, both companies offer notable education programs, teaching children and adults alike about artistic beauty and unconventional self-expression.
